It's easy to assemble. The navy color is what I was expecting. I've certainly purchased more comfortable couches. It's like a firm mattress. Keep that in mind if you prefer something soft. The chaise is the best part to lounge on. At 5-11, if I had to do it again, I might've bought something that was about 80 inches in  length or so; that would allow me to stretch out horizontally. It works for the price and size.
